A multiple car accident on the 405 freeway in Orange County left one of the drivers with serious injuries. The accident occurred in the carpool lane of the northbound 405 freeway near the Westminster Boulevard. As a result of the car accident, an SUV overturned in the carpool lane and blocked up to three lanes on the 405 for much of the morning and congested traffic severely for the rest of the day. The driver of the SUV had to be extracted from his vehicle by the Orange County Fire Department, and was transported to a local area hospitals for treatment for serious injuries.
When there are numerous cars involved in a motor vehicle accident, making an insurance claim for property damage and personal injury claims can be complex and time consuming. It is much more difficult than a simple accident involving just two parties. In a two party car accident, it is much simpler to determine cause of the accident, and the driver who will be liable for the damages. However, when there are many cars involved in an accident, with many injured parties making claims, the claims process becomes more time consuming and complex, necessitating an attorney to help represent you to navigate through the claims process.
An experienced attorney will help negotiate with insurance adjusters (and opposing attorneys) to help you get the best compensation for your injuries. Without proper representation, it is very easy to get taken advantage of by insurance adjusters, whose primary objective is to give you the smallest compensation for your claims. Accordingly, even though insurance adjusters may try to be personable and nice to you during the claims process, please note that they are only doing this in hopes to settle your claims for less than their full value.
